    These paperweights were given to me by my mother's boyfriend toward the end of his life. I am constantly in awe of their beauty and the craftsmanship that went into their creation!

      He had good tastes! If you need some information, let me know. I'd be happy to help out.

      Thank you for that! I have limited information on any of the paperweights given to me, and what I do have is limited to just what is written in the Ebay receipts for most of them from his original purchases. One is simply a sales receipt from an antique dealer (The St. Clair green rose), and one is a receipt for the purchase with no identifying information at all (for the one with the flower and bee). I would love to know who made that one in particular as it's my favorite in the entire collection. A couple have stickers on the bottom with numbers on them, and only a few are signed.

      The info I have on these, in the order pictured is as follows...
      Victor Trabucco VT-101 (flower with bee)
      Perthshire Seven Flower Bouquet, L/E (signed with "P" cane at stem)
      Caithness Alpine Pink sign Whitefriars 49-250 (signed by monk cane)
      John Parsley 1992 ruby wild roses (signed and dated)

      paperweightcrazy, why can't you share your knowledge with all of us? There are other members here who also have a love of paperweights, and can learn from your knowledge.
      So, please SHOW and TELL.

      Hi Gillian, I can and will post some additional information here, but email is just easier to have a back and forth conversation. Will post more later.
